bought a new Oral-B toothbrush yesterday called the Cross Action - quite cool.. it comes with three types of bristles and was apparently developed by Oral-B after some couple of million US$ of R&D. heard about it from my Marketing Class after one of the groups did a project presentation on Oral-B as a company and how they come up with new products and pricing. According to my Marketing lecturer, consumers can be divided into different categories depending on how quickly they rush out to check out a new product in the market - the quickest are these people called "innovators" (like my friend Daniel who is always the first to get novel and innovative products - like the NetMD and Xbox) once it hits the market and on the other end of the scale are these "laggards" who only buy the products when they are tried and tested to death by the majority of the people...

i think i fall somewhere in between..err... ya?
